Jesus, you purchased my freedom with your blood. While I was still a slave to sin, you died to set me free. I can't repay this, can't earn it, can't deserve it. It's pure gift - free to me, infinitely costly to you. Forgive me for treating this freedom cheaply. For using liberty as licens

Those who hope in Me will renew their strength. They'll soar on wings like eagles; they'll run and not grow weary, walk and not be faint. When you're exhausted, wait for Me. I renew strength - not just once, but continually, as often as you need it.

Father, I've been performing for you instead of resting in you. I've been presenting my spiritual resume instead of confessing my desperate need. I've been measuring my worth by my disciplines instead of trusting Christ's finished work. Forgive my Pharisaism. Teach me to pray not to earn

See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come. I make all things new - including this season you're in. What felt frozen is thawing. What seemed dead is budding. Spring is here.

Father, you created seasons to mark time and give rhythm to life. You built hope into creation by making winter temporary and spring certain. Every year testifies that darkness doesn't last, death isn't final, dormancy precedes growth. You made the world to remind me that resurrection is r

Today (or tomorrow, depending on the year) marks the Spring Equinox when day and night are equal length - approximately 12 hours each. From this point forward until the Summer Solstice in June, daylight gains ground daily. Light is winning its annual battle against darkness. For those in t

I created seasons to mark sacred times, to give rhythm to your life, to remind you that everything has its time. Spring after winter, planting after harvesting, light after darkness. Trust the season you're in; I designed it with purpose.
